Crystal answers 'THE' question, will she?
July 27th 2008 08:44
It's not hard to guess is it, Andrew thought I had given out enough vibes for him to pop the question, and I said yes.
It was such a wonderful occasion, but no ring to pop on my finger YET, thank heavens. You all must have an idea that I really want to choose it myself.
Afterwards he went to ask my father for my hand in marriage and apparently dad gave him a wry smile and said Oh, that's such a relief, we thought it would never happen.
If I weren't so happy I'd probably be annoyed, but I'm on cloud nine, does every girl feel this way when she gets engaged?
Of course, it's all very hush hush until we've got the ring and then we'll announce our engagement and mum will put on a big party, you know one of those affairs where you invite everyone that the couple hardly knows, like the relatives.
Yesterday we went to a large city jeweller, and Andrew chose that one and then we spent three hours making our choice. I really needed Andrew there as I did not know how much he wanted to spend, although he seemed happy enough to spend it, every girl's dream.
He and the salesmen were very discreet about costs and I didn't know the price of my selection.
But I am so happy with my selection and just can't wait to get it on my finger.
The colours from the diamond shoot out in a rainbow kaleidoscope in the right light and I could spend hours just looking at it and probably will.
We have been promised it will be ready for next weekend and Andrew is taking me to a lovely restaurant and I guess he'll give me the ring then.
All I know at this stage is that he's going around with a huge smile on his face, fait accompli, so to speak, the predatory male beats within the heart of many a sincere lover so I am led to believe.
It's such an exciting time.
Of course we've got heaps of things to work out but I guess that will be the story of our life from now on.
Girls do be careful of the man you choose, choose someone who has some values of a conservative nature, not the usual stud around screwing everything in sight.
It's worth the wait and then you'll have a future.
Andrew is becoming increasingly frisky and wants to get married very soon. I don't think he likes the idea of waiting any longer than two months, barely time to get everything organised.
Well, that's my news of the week, I thought I'd better put my post on a little earlier than usual as it will be go go go from now on, and after next weekend when its official everything will have to move along at a rocketing pace.
I'm feeling very dreamy, and so in love, and Tinkerbelle insists on sitting on my lap, I'm sure she know she's going to have competition from now on.
Well, everyone, I hope your weekend has been as exciting as mine, at present I want to share my good fortune with the whole world.

and Louie, you know what dad's are like, he's a rock in times of need, so we forgive him his funny ways. Thing is he doesn't realize how funny he is, with all his seriousness.
